19、A 140, Standard on Motion Picture and Television Production Studio Sound- stages, Approved Production Facilities, and Production Locations, was prepared by the Technical Committee on Motion Picture and Television Industry. It was issued by the Standards Council on November 27, 2012, with an effectiv

20、e date of December 17, 2012, and supersedes all previous editions. This edition of NFPA 140 was approved as an American National Standard on Decem- ber 17, 2012. Origin and Development of NFPA 140 The 1999 edition of NFPA 140, Standard on Motion Picture and Television Production Studio Soundstages a

21、nd Approved Production Facilities, was the first standard developed by the Technical Committee on Motion Picture and Television Industry. It closely paralleled a standard in effect in the state of California. The 2004 edition incorporated minor reformatting mandated by the Manual of Style for NFPA T

22、echnical Committee Documents. The 2008 edition was expanded to include requirements for production locations (i.e., “shooting on location”), and the title was changed to reflect that inclusion. Revisions to the 2013 edition include new requirements that soundstage audiences be provided with instruct

23、ions relative to location of exits and means that will be used to notify them in the event of fire or other emergency; use, mixing, dispensing, or storage of flam- mable and combustible liquids must be per fire code; hydrants, standpipes, and fire depart- ment connections must not be blocked, obstru

24、cted, or rendered inoperative; and grounding must by bonded per NFPA 70 , National Electrical Code , where power from both mobile generators and site electrical services are used to energize equipment. 1401 NFPA and National Fire Protection Association are registered trademarks of the National Fire
